Asia has seen the most significant increase in goat milk production (22%) over the last decade between 2007 and 2017, followed by Africa (13%), Oceania (9%), the Americas (5%), and Europe (4%) (Miller & Lu, 2019). Goat milk is a wholesome and nutritious milk drink that has good digestibility, alkalinity, buffering capacity, and certain therapeutic values in medicine and human nutrition, which differs from cow milk (Park, 2007). The digestibility of goat milk is due to the size of casein which is smaller and smoother than that of cow's milk (Yadav et al., 2016). It can be readily consumed by the digestive system compared to cow's milk and is also ideal for babies and lactose intolerants (Haenlein, 2004;Park, 2007;Yadav et al., 2016).Currently, high-quality and safe milk products are demanded by consumers worldwide. These products should have a fresh-like characteristic in terms of flavor, texture, color, nutrient, and aroma with an extended shelf life (Ozcan et al., 2017;Trujillo et al., 2002).
